I know right Shane .. when I saw her in the flesh again today I remembered exactly why I fell in love ... I've only been looking at photos for the last week so I had forgotten how great it looks. Anyways, I picked her up this afternoon, well evening really, bout 6pm so it was pretty much dark when I took off, not a long ride today but what I did get to do just made me grin and grin  Taking her for a trip this weekend to go see my mum so it'll be a great chance for us to get to know each other .. pics when I get back |

Hell yeah Ray!!! OK so after an 800km ride my thoughts are ... wheeeeeeeee !! This bike is lovely!! Unlike Roxy he's as stable as a rock, cornering is like wow, and he doesn't want to lie down for a snooze every time I stop. I can even do a u-turn!! He is still a bit high for me but actually that's not as bad as I thought it would be, if I'd tried to hold Roxy steady at lights with just one foot she would have been lying down in seconds, the Kwaka just wants to stay put even with tippy toes, I will be getting the lowering kit put on tho, just to make parking a bit easier if for nothing else. As far as power goes .. the first time I went to overtake I accelerated like I would have with Rox .. oops .. nearly went orf the back ... wheeeeeee .. not that I went fast this trip, he's still in the 'breaking in period' and I'm still way to unfamiliar with him and his little ways  So there will be some stuff to suit VT400 / 750 '09 and up soon, I just need to get myself sorted then I'll post up what I have in the for sale section. Oh yeah and pics .. we had the weekend in Newcastle but were so busy with family we didn't get the chance to do the ride that I wanted to do for pics round the beaches .. well actually we had an afternoon off but of course it stormed just at that time .. oh well I guess we'll have to go back Did get to visit a bike shop there that I've never seen, pretty cool place, and Cray got himself a new helmet, even though it was me who was shopping Pics ....   |

Thanks guys Shane, you read my mind .. Sheesh you's are full of questions .. Ray different bikes are different people didn't ya know .. all the time I was calling the Kwaka her, then I got on and went for a ride .. nope way too sleek and strong to be a girl, and his hips aren't wide enough  BF well if ya haven't worked that out yet .. I hate having my pic taken .. no really I hate it!! That's why I bought a camera |

Yep, I'm the same. But by the way the forum is going, we might have to set up a new group......... 'Shadow riders who don't own shadows anymore'  Btw, what parts are you selling? |

Not sure yet Bf gotta work out what I can use either for my bike or crays, some things may just need new brackets but there is definitely two back racks, one solo w riders backrest, one pillion. And probably a Ventura bag. I just need to work out if the screen will go on Kwaka with diff brackets, hoping to keep that but if it doesn't, its going too. There might also be national cycle paladin highway bars, if we can't get them to fit crays bike. I'm pretty sure I have a set if kuryakyn pillion pegs floating around somewhere.
